The Steagle is a 1971 American comedy film based on the novel of the same name by Irvin Faust. The film was directed by Paul Sylbert and starred Richard Benjamin.[1] The film concerns the personality change which overcomes the protagonist during the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962, and the film's title implicitly references the transient nature of the Steagles NFL team, existing for only the 1943 season during a national crisis.
Paul Sylbert wrote a 1974 book, Final Cut, about his mostly unhappy experiences making the film.[2]
